Aynor High Alma Mater

On the coast of Carolina, stands the school we love the best. Blue the banner waving o'er her, emblem of her fearlessness. High green pines are all around her; English ivy climbs her walls. Hallowed are the many memories of years spent within her halls. To Aynor High our Alma Mater, pledge we now our loyalty. True are her daughters, strong her sons; crowning her with victory. Her guiding hand, her praise, her name; we'll sing above the rest. We shall to all the world proclaim, the glory of our AHS.

According to historians, the Alma Mater was written by Maribel Lewis, a member of the AHS Class of 1942. She received assistance from her school mate, John Emory Floyd. Together they crafted lyrics that reflected their love of and loyalty to Aynor High School. The lyrics and melody remain distinct and unique to this day.
